(see same attachment as in issue 8300)

If you select, and copy the contents, of a merged cell, then select another
merge cell (either same dimensions, or different) you can't use
paste-special to copy formats, or contents.

You can't use PASTE either, but I think that's because it tries to copy the merging
to the destination cells too - hence the failure)

I conside it a bug that PASTE SPECIAL doesn't allow you to do this. 

it seems to work if the original (copy-from) cell is not a merged cell.
